Complaining

Posted in Married to the Best Man Alive

I'm trying not to complain anymore.    It's a lot like going on a diet -- you don't realize how often you snack through the day until you are trying not to snack.  I never realized how often I complain. 

 

We haven't spent any time with Liam in 8 days because his schedule has kept him busy morning, noon, and night.  I am missing him terribly!  I bit my tongue so many times today when I wanted to complain.

 

I must overcome this bad habit by the grace of God for the good of our marriage and because I'm setting an example for my children.  Lord help me! 

 

Philippians 2:14-15 NKJV

Do all things without complaining and disputing, that you may become blameless and harmless, children of God without fault in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world....

 

Proverbs 21:9 NKJV

Better to dwell in a corner of a housetop, Than in a house shared with a contentious woman.

 

Proverbs 21:19 NKJV

Better to dwell in the wilderness, Than with a contentious and angry woman.

It's so uplifting to see that you desire to make changes for the glory of the Lord and for a peaceable marriage and good example to your children. I find that this can be an area I have to work on as well from time to time. May the Lord's grace shine upon you.
